 * Jeff, I had an idea for a feature today that might have some value to the user
   base.
 * Currently, you can turn things on/off on a page by page basis.
 * What if in the expanding “Disabled” box you added a button to “Create Filter”
   which would then either push those settings to a newly created filter (after 
   saving/updating the post/page) – or launch a pop-up which would give the user
   an input for a name, auto-populate the slug based on current page, and then maybe
   the “Also Affect Children box” as well.
 * Thoughts?
 * While I like the granularity of page by page – I find filters more valuable when
   working on large sites with new plugins being introduced here and there.

 * I’m not sure how useful that would really be. You could do the same thing by 
   taking the permalink from the post/page and creating a plugin filter. It would
   take a bit of work from me on the plugin side to create a feature like that.
